Chapter 679 - Are You Awake
Chapter 679: Are You Awake
“Thank you.”Yun Xiangxiang was a little touched when she thought about it. She was also a little overwhelmed by the favor.
Even she could see that she was not suitable for the Min family. How could a smart person like old man Min not see it?
She said this to make her happy and also to stop her from self-denying and belittling herself. She secretly praised her for being an excellent girl.
“I told you. This little girl has an exquisite heart.”Old Man Min chuckled. “If you really want to thank me, come here more often when you have time to visit the old man.”
“You have a lot of things to attend to every day. Why would I bother you so much?”Yun Xiangxiang pretended to be stupid.
Although old man min had basically given up his authority to be an old master, his position as the head of the family could not be shaken. He was usually very busy.
Moreover, Yun Xiangxiang was also busy. She did not even have much time to visit Uncle Song. If she went to Hong Kong often, wouldn’t Uncle Song Be Angry?
“I feel that my old bones are not as busy as a young man like you.”Old Man Min stretched out his hand and pointed at her with a smile. “You’re afraid that the song family’s old man will be jealous, right?”
After being seen through, Yun Xiangxiang did not refute and smiled shyly.
At this moment, the door was pushed open. Old Man Min’s right-hand man walked in and said to him in a low voice, “There are a few people you need to meet.”
That meant that the younger generation of the Min family had gone to receive someone who was a little disrespectful. Yun Xiangxiang also stood up. “I’m going to visit Little Lang. I’ll definitely visit you when I’m free. I haven’t thanked you for helping me connect the dots.”
She was referring to the house in the Jun Ming mansion. Old Man Min smiled and waved his hand.
Yun Xiangxiang left the room and went to the washroom first.
“Urgh –”
The moment she entered the washroom, she saw someone lying on the sink and vomiting crazily. The person who came out after going to the washroom was still vomiting.
Yun Xiangxiang took a piece of paper from the side and gave it to her. “Are You Alright?”
This person paused for a moment before he slowly raised his head. Yun Xiangxiang was a little shocked. It was actually Shi Youxuan.
Looking at her pale face and her incessant retching, Yun Xiangxiang had a bad feeling. “You…”
“Thank you.”Shi Youxuan took the tissue and wiped it. “I drank too much recently and hurt my stomach.”
Yun Xiangxiang nodded and did not ask any further. After washing her hands, she turned around and prepared to leave.
“Wait.”Shi Youxuan Stopped Yun Xiangxiang. She turned around and leaned against the sink. “The Dong family wants to marry the Tang family. Dong Shengying has always called herself Tang Zhiyu’s fiancée.”
“So, this uncultured woman is angry at me because of Tang Zhiyu?”Yun Xiangxiang understood.
“I shouldn’t say angry, I should say jealous.”Shi Youxuan Corrected Yun Xiangxiang’s choice of words. She turned around, took out her makeup box, and touched up her makeup in front of the mirror. “I’ll go back after attending this banquet.”
Go Back? Yun Xiangxiang looked at Shi Youxuan. “Don’t you want to go back to the Shi Family?”
Shi Youxuan’s hand that was holding the lipstick tube paused for a moment before she smiled mockingly. “Some things are infinitely beautiful because they can’t be obtained. Only when you are about to come into contact with them do you realize how ugly they are. It’s not worth it to risk your life for them.”
“Human nature is like that, isn’t it?”Too many people would be stubborn and even stubborn because of this reason.
“Yes, this is the root of human weakness. I’ve already woken up and suffered enough. It shouldn’t be that I don’t want to force myself anymore.”Shi Youxuan continued to put on her lipstick.
Yun Xiangxiang looked at her for a while, then walked away.
She didn’t return to the lively main hall, but the sounds coming from inside could be heard. She could imagine the clinking of glasses inside, and the sky gradually darkened. In the garden, in the corridor, the lights under the eaves shone brightly, the entire mansion was illuminated like a palace under the night sky.
Perhaps it was because of her ordinary birth that she was not used to such a scene. She felt that she was always out of place with these people.
She really hoped that it would end soon and that she would be at ease.
As she walked along the path in boredom, Yun Xiangxiang heard the sound of footsteps behind her. Just as she turned her body to the side, she took a glance at a black shadow that was crashing toward her. Yun Xiangxiang’s reaction was very quick, and she took a small step to the side.
The person who had crashed into her clearly did not expect her to be able to dodge. When her arm collided with Yun Xiangxiang’s, she was actually able to stop herself. She did not hesitate to twist her ankle to hit the side and bump into Yun Xiangxiang again.
Yun Xiangxiang saw the person clearly now. Wasn’t that the arrogant Miss Dong Shengying?
However, it was already too late for Yun Xiangxiang to Dodge. She guessed that this person wanted her to give her a cushion to press down on her.
The Moment Yun Xiangxiang fell, she grabbed Dong Shengying’s wrist. The heel of her high heels spun on the ground, making an extremely ear-piercing sound. The two of them had switched positions in such a short period of time after falling.
Behind them was the grass. Dong shengying crashed onto the ground. Yun Xiangxiang smashed onto her body without any psychological pressure.
Dong Shengying was in so much pain that she couldn’t cry out. However, tears quickly formed in her eyes. Yun Xiangxiang was not in the mood to care about her. She supported herself on the ground and stood up. There was actually no one around her. Yun Xiangxiang looked at Dong Shengying, who was grimacing in pain and lying on the ground.
She squatted down and said to her, “Miss Dong, before you harm someone, think about your ability first.”
Yun Xiangxiang did not call anyone for her and directly returned to the main hall. At this time, there were already many people present. The Qin family had arranged for everyone to take their seats, and the banquet was about to begin. Tang Suran pulled Yun Xiangxiang along and wanted to sit together with her.
The two of them had just sat down when a noblewoman walked over aggressively. Yun Xiangxiang turned around, and the other party gave her a slap in the face. However, Yun Xiangxiang, who had already felt the wind from the slap, raised her hand and grabbed her wrist.
She unceremoniously picked up the wine on the table and splashed it on the noblewoman’s face.
With a thud, Yun Xiangxiang put down the wine glass on the table and calmly asked the woman, who was in a sorry state, “Are you awake?”
Initially, when she saw someone running over with an unfriendly expression, Yun Xiangxiang thought that a little girl like her would definitely be at a disadvantage. However, she did not expect the situation to turn around in an instant. Such a beautiful and weak girl stood elegantly in front of the dining table, and her imposing manner made people look at her in a new light.
Not only were the others shocked, but even the person who was splashed by Yun Xiangxiang was also in a sorry state and could not react for a long time.
However, Yun Xiangxiang’s voice brought her back to her senses. She was so angry that her entire body was trembling. She wanted to Slap Yun Xiangxiang with her other hand.
Yun Xiangxiang had yet to move when she was stopped by another person. “Mrs. Dong, I don’t know how Miss Yun offended you, but she needed to make such a big fuss to denounce you at our Qin family’s banquet.”
It was the second Mrs. Qin who had caught up.
Mrs. Dong? Yun Xiangxiang guessed that it should be dong Shengying’s mother. No wonder her daughter was so uneducated. It turned out that mothers were people who could not distinguish the occasion.
Yun Xiangxiang shook off the other party’s hand and turned to the second Mrs. Qin. “Mrs. Dong and I don’t know each other, but just now in the garden, Miss Dong tried to push me down, but she fell down.”
